I Find the e mail listed below rather troubling.

1. Complaint the last set of quality tires were more than they would like to
spend. ( I suspect the tires gave excellent results )

2.  Quoting a low price for a tire (only, no install ) that is out of stock
then complaining in  # 3.

3. Calling the shop who can get the obsolete size tire and install it at a
reasonable cost  " buffoons ".

Seems there will be no satisfying this person, reminds me of one of the
reasons why I closed my shop 10 years ago.

I suspect when a low cost tire is located complaints of poor quality will
surface.  How do I know the tire at Tire Rack is out of stock?  I'm looking for
 a
set for a older SAAB.
